Daniel Jacobs : (5) " I’ve seen a lot in my life and nothing really shocked me, just being where I’m from. But this was unexpected. It just hit me, like, I have cancer? Me? " - Daniel Jacobs " I was raised by my grandmother, my mom, about five or six aunts and female cousins as well. We were all in one building. I definitely learned how to respect and how to treat women. " - Daniel Jacobs " My grandmother was very strict. She and my mom wouldn’t let me hang around the streets. It wasn’t my lifestyle. " - Daniel Jacobs " The doctors misdiagnosed me at first – they told me I had a pinched nerve. But my situation was getting worse. The tumor was cutting off the circulation in my nerves. And in two weeks’ time, I was left paralyzed. I went from a cane to crutches to a walker to a wheelchair. " - Daniel Jacobs " If I’m winning and looking impressive and being on the scene, the fans are going to start demanding bigger fights. " - Daniel Jacobs
